صحيح مسلم 7483

Shaqiq reported that it was said to Usama b. Zaid:Why don't you visit 'Uthman and talk to him? Thereupon he said: Do you think that I have not talked to him but that I have made you hear? By Allah. I have talked to him (about things) concerning me and him and I did not like to divulge those things about which I had to take the initiative and I do not say to my ruler: "You are the best among people," after I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: A man will be brought on the Day of Resurrection and thrown in Hell-Fire and his intestines will pour forth in Hell and he will go round along with them, as an ass goes round the mill stone. The denizens of Hell would gather round him and say: O, so and so, what has happened to you? Were you not enjoining us to do what was reputable and forbid us to do what was disreputable? He will say: Of course, it is so; I used to enjoin (upon people) to do what was reputable but did not practise that myself. I had been forbidding people to do what was disreputable, but practised it myself

Rapporté par Shaqiq : On a dit à Usama b. Zaid : « Pourquoi ne vas-tu pas voir ‘Uthman pour lui parler ? » Il répondit : « Pensez-vous que je ne lui ai pas parlé, mais que je voulais seulement que vous l’entendiez ? Par Allah, je lui ai parlé de choses qui me concernent avec lui, et je n’ai pas voulu révéler ce dont j’ai pris l’initiative. Et je ne dis pas à mon dirigeant : “Tu es le meilleur des gens”, car j’ai entendu le Messager d’Allah ﷺ dire : “Le Jour de la Résurrection, un homme sera amené et jeté en Enfer ; ses entrailles sortiront et il tournera autour d’elles comme un âne tourne autour de la meule. Les habitants de l’Enfer se rassembleront autour de lui et diront : Ô untel, qu’est-ce qui t’est arrivé ? N’ordonnais-tu pas le bien et n’interdisais-tu pas le mal ?” Il répondra : “Oui, j’ordonnais le bien mais je ne le faisais pas moi-même, et j’interdisais le mal mais je le faisais moi-même.” »
